Providing healthy meal boxes

Meet Sabrina one of our wonderful volunteers putting together COVID-19 emergency food bags.

Camden Mobile Food Bank, along with partners in our community has been helping more families with food and support. Last year we supported 3889 people and as the cost of living is biting and increased energy bills are taking hold, our service is still needed more than ever.

Our wonderful volunteers support our service every week, sorting and packing our school lunch packs and meal boxes, responding to online referrals and working with local organisations who deliver emergency services to vulnerable people. Running the food bank is no mean feat and we can not support so many people in need, without the wonderful help from local people, volunteers and funders.

It costs £1121 every week to keep the food bank open!

our service

Our healthy meal boxes are created by local people for our food bank users. We are passionate about great tasting food and the pleasure of sharing it with others and are committed to providing food that is fresh and wholesome. Our meal box service focuses on providing nutritional food that supports health and well-being. We create meal solutions and teach people and families how to cook from scratch.

Our meal boxes have all the fresh ingredients for users to create their own meals at home, a fun way to get everyone cooking.

To access the Camden Mobile Food Bank service please continue to use our online referral form.

HOW DOES IT WORK

We take self-referrals from local people suffering food insecurity or referrals from professionals who work for local charities, organisations and health agencies. Just complete a simple online referral form that we aim to process within 24 hours. Our food bank coordinator will then contact users to arrange a collection date and time. It’s that simple!

MAKE A REFERRAL

We accept self-referrals from individuals who are in urgent need of food. If you’re a local organisation, housing association, health centre, local school or community centre you can also refer clients directly too, using the same form.

Our referral form is simple and easy to complete. We’ll then contact you to arrange a collection date and time.

OUR HOME

We run Camden Mobile Food Bank from The Saint Pancras and Somers Town Living Centre, Mondays and Thursdays 10am - 2pm.

 

Please keep DONATING

We are appealing for more food donations and financial contributions to keep the food bank open.

You can donate food every Monday and Thursday between 10am - 2pm. 

You can also make a financial donation on our JustGiving page. £10 could go a long way to keeping food on a families table.
